The writer’s life is a dream life. Right? I sit around in my pajamas all day long, putzing around on the computer. My time is my own. And likely I have a luxurious office with a chaise lounge in hot pink.
Well some of that’s true. I sit most of the day though in jeans and a sweater. And I do my hair because the days I don’t…well, the doorbell rings constantly. The writing is fun in a perverse sort of way though after a day, or a morning or an hour at the computer (whichever the rest of my life allows) I feel like I was run over, flopped to my back and stomped on. Emotionally speaking, of course. And my office… well, have a look for yourself:
Yeah. Don’t I wish. This is one of my dream offices–in my imagination only. It is actually a picture of real estate in Montana so if you have a hankering for this view, go there.
Me, I have to be content with it on my screen saver.
By the way, if you’re interested in some juicy secrets of other authors, check back. I’m hoping to get a few of them to spill their secrets which I will them shamelessly post here for all to see.
WELCOME TO MY WORLD AND MY CONTEST
Welcome. Here I am back again with a new blog to go with my new website. Be sure and check out the web page before you leave. You’ll see the new books I have coming out.
This month saw the release of the first books in the new Love Inspired Historical line. This is the line I will have books coming out with in May 08, Aug. 08 and Jan. 09 (for starters). I’ve been so looking forward to reading the first of these books. But guess what? No one in my town has them on the shelves yet. I am so disappointed and keep hoping they’ll show up. Better late than never, right?
Of course, I can order them on line from www.eharlequin.com but I wanted to buy them off the shelf. There is just something about picking up a book and carrying it to the cash register that isn’t equalled by getting a parcel in the mail.
I hope in this blog to share bits of my world as a writer, a mother, a friend, a wife, etc. I plan to invite other writers to share the secrets of their writing life so drop in often to see what others are doing.
Also, to anyone who leaves a comment before the end of March, I’ll enter you in a draw for my latest book. I am looking forward to seeing lots of you visit my blog and my site.
